Why is it required that I block and brace the fork lifts and not the guys putting the fork lifts on my trailer?
They want me to block and brace a shipment of fork lifts?

Why is it that I must load and unload my tanker myself?
77fib77, stwik, spyder7723 and 10 others Thank this. -
Wouldn't the guys loading the product have a better idea of bracing their product correctly? I would think they load the truck so they could help secure it too? Otherwise, to me, it's like having a non licensed driver back the truck into the dock. Sure he could do it, but wouldn't it be a better idea if I did the driving and they did the securing?
